Israel seeking to torpedo Iran nuclear deal: Analyst

Press TV has conducted an interview with James Morris, a Los Angeles-based editor at US-hijacked.com, to ask for his take on the initial understanding reached between Iran and the P5+1 group of countries in Lausanne, over nuclear issues.

The following is a rough transcription of the interview.

Press TV: Mr. Morris, after the last round in Lausanne, it seemed with respect to the mutual understanding, the US delegates went back with a fact sheet that seemed to differ somewhat from the rest of the P5+1 group delegates. Why do you think there was such a discrepancy?

Morris: Thank you for having me back on Press TV. You can go to my blog at America-hijacked.com, which you can also get to by going to US-hijacked.com. There is a discrepancy because of the influence of the Israel lobby in America, which I have talked about prior. President Obama I think sincerely would like to get some type of deal with Iran over the nuclear program, however, there is a blatant double-standard; nothing has ever done about Israel’s 200 plus nuclear weapons and Israel also deliberately attacked the USS Liberty as we know, murdering 34 American sailors and 172 wounded, and that never gets discussed in US Zionist media either.

But the main reason as I alluded to here, is the Israeli lobby wants to go to war with Iran, and they own the US Congress. When I say the US Congress, I’m talking about politicians like Tom Cotton, who introduced that letter on behalf of the 47 senators; he is sponsored by the Israeli lobby. You can see information again on my US-hijacked.com blog, where he was funded by…neocon warmonger William Kristol and his group, the Emergency Committee to protect Israel, or the Emergency Committee for Israel. He has received a million dollars in contributions from the Israeli lobby to include Kristol’s group I just mentioned. It is outrageous what is happening in America, the Zionist media does not mention it. They would like to derail the Iran deal to go to war with Iran, like we saw what happened before in Iraq.

Press TV: That’s my question to you Sir. With these external factors in place, right, how important is it to get the syntax in a language correct on these fact sheets and are they justified, I mean the Iranian officials here in Tehran, to be concerned over the language or rhetoric on these fact sheets.

Morris: Well, I believe they are. Because the demand that is being made by the state department on behalf of the Obama administration is to basically go forward with the deal with giving any guarantee of the sanctions that have been imposed by the UN and the US Congress, of those being lifted. So how can one basically have the Iranians on their end if they act in good faith and everyone can assume that they will, to go ahead with the deal yet not have the sanctions lifted. And the Zionist lobby in America, the Israeli lobby as I have mentioned before on Press TV, AIPAC, American and Israel Public Affairs Committee, the neoconservatives which is…that Israeli lobby to include Bill Kristol as I just mentioned, they want to derail that deal and they know the best way to do that is to basically impose another round of sanctions which will be unacceptable to the Iranian side, and that will set us on the path to war.

And lastly, I’d like to also mention what’s going on off of Yemen now with the USS Theodore Roosevelt. I need to warn, and get the warning out urgently that the US navy has to look out for the possibility of USS Liberty-like false flag attack on any American ship, what we saw Israel do with the USS Liberty, which I mentioned here, to draw us into war with Iran. And that’s very very dangerous right now, we have seen the Israelis do this before with the Lavon affair again the USS Liberty, and I hope the USS Navy knows where the Israeli submarines are operating in the area, or any other vessel that can pose as an Iranian ship or gunship, and basically be an Israeli false flag to get us into another war for Israel against Iran like we saw with Iraq.
